TWICE - STRATEGY
93

the most peak ever

TWICE - The Story Begins
80

i really love “like ooh-ahh”, but i don’t feel that same energy throughout the rest of their debut ep. still a fun listen, but can get a bit boring and repetitive

TWICE - PAGE TWO

cheer up baby cheer up baby

LE SSERAFIM - SPAGHETTI
85

didn’t love this at first, but now its genuinely one of my favorite songs to blast in the car. i dont really understand the hate honestly—its catchy and the choreography is really fun! the lyrics are bland but this isnt really anything new with k-pop.

i HATE j-hope in this song. men ruin everything.

YENA - LOVE CATCHER
80

“catch catch” is definitely yena’s sound, and i feel like she definitely needs to lean into the energetic, electro-pop sound more! we saw this with nemonemo, but i feel like she really put her all into this song. that is to say, i really wish she kept that same energy throughout the rest of the ep. overall, its pretty solid, i just really think “catch catch” stood out more than the rest of the songs.

NewJeans - NJWMX
50

the remixes nobody asked for

Tommy heavenly6 - February & Heavenly (Heavenly Bundle)
90

genuinely one of the most peak j-rock ever. its not too often you see this type of music in the j-rock sphere, so this is super awesome and refreshing to hear!! “CALL ME PRINCESS” is the best track on here by far

Modern Color - There Goes The Dream
85

let’s make them viral - week 18

im late… anyhow this is an incredibly solid record! im a huge fan of post-hardcore and i feel like this is a nice addition to the genre. the vocals are pretty good and so is the instrumentation, HOWEVER!! i did not find anything super crazy or creative in this album. its fun to jam out to in the car though!

Descendents - Milo Goes to College
75

actually fun/dance-able punk music! its nothing crazy or pioneering, but it does have good rhythms. it is lowkey a bit corny (especially “i’m not a loser”) but honestly thats what makes it fun. suburban home is a REALLY good song and it definitely stands out compared to the others.

Destroy Boys - Grimester
75

i enjoyed sus bus a lot! i hope they release a cleaner, better-mixed version of this song on spotify. however, the sentiment is shared that they were at an early point in their music.

[let’s make them viral - week 16]

let me state the obvious; this album is INCREDIBLY repetitive, which leaves me thinking about how horrible and torturous it would be to listen to live. and though it is still quite torturous to listen here in my room, it kind of reminds me of listening to the loud hum of air conditioning at night—that is to say, its weirdly comforting, and i find myself zoning out to the repetitive guitar riffs.

that being said, i did not enjoy this. its not my ... read more

YOASOBI - アイドル [Idol]

its a shame that such a shitty anime has one of the best opening songs of all time

KATSEYE - Internet Girl

hybe’s attempt to recreate gnarly has failed miserably and it shows through this song

ano - BONE BORN BOMB
75

[let’s make them viral - week 12!]

this album was such a fun listen!! she has an incredible vocal range, going from cute vocals to full-on screamo. i enjoy the contrast a lot!! its kinda like if j-pop mixed with post-hardcore, which is pretty awesome. however, i do feel its a tad generic, and i feel like she definitely couldve done more with the range she has.

one of my favorite songs from this album is inazukkyun (track 5). its just so catchy!!

also, she looks badass in the cover. ... read more
